Reznorite420 05-13-2003 01:47 PM

As if that really mattered to me... :roll:

Darn, I was hoping this wouldn't happen, oh well, I am sure they probly had to bribe Konami a lot to get it, Konami probly won't make another game for their system once they figure out they get the least sales... :)

i actually agree with you :o :lol: .

If i see any game on X-box i like, i'll just wait for it to get ported on the computer :roll: .

Peanut 05-13-2003 03:14 PM

Tokka is there really any need for that? Why can't you be happy that more people will get to experience the new TMNT game? Personally I'll be buying th GC version, best controllers and best load times.

Karpo_007 05-13-2003 03:24 PM

X-box will be the second best looking version, but I will probably be getting Gamecube version. I to expect lower sales on X-box, because the target audience is probably mostly GC and PS2 owners.

Nturtle 05-13-2003 03:39 PM

Yeah I had already confirmed this in my last news post...

Tokka-B 05-13-2003 06:07 PM

There never is a need for anything in this forum....is there a need for this website?!? I just wanted to say that. Making games for the X-box will probably cost more than the kind of sales they will get...Konami made a bad moe this time....now I can only wish for a sequel... :(

SHUT. UP. How can releasing a game on ANOTHER platform so MORE people can experience it gonna make them LOSE money? Not to mention it will look and sound better than any other version. Plain fact. I was really happy to hear this news since I really didn't want to have to be in my brother's room all the time to use the Gamecube, not to mention my turtle gang and I all own and prefer XBoxes..But your bashing really annoyed me. Have some common sense and respect for other people here; it's just like when people get pissed about the old cartoon being bashed. I get pissed when people bash my XBox.

No ones dissing..its just common sense and a known fact Xbox sucks..=x

Enough of the bashing. Everyone likes their own system. Each have their pros and cons. The game is coming out on all three consoles. The move to put the game on X-Box won't make sales any worse. If the game is good it will sell! No matter the console. Let's leave it at that.

Pidgeot018 05-14-2003 06:34 AM

I think people are worried that the new game will be exclusive to XBOX, which it won't. I think the biggest reason for "fanboy-ism" is that if you spend so much money into getting, say, a PS2 and it's games and accesories, than you may be rightyfully ticked off to see XBOX and Gamecube get some good stuff. It's like an investment, really. No one wants to see something they poured so much money, time, and emotion into go down the drain. Why, I remember back to the days of the 16-bt Sega/Nintendo wars. Those were some violent times...

What I'm really craving, however, is a compilation of Konami's old TMNT games, including the legendary Arcade Game. :goofygri:

Not neccessarily. X-box is not considered a console wich parent buy for their children. It is usually GC or PS2. X-box's target audience is older, and thats why GC and PS2 version will probably sell more.

And X-box version is not the best looking or sounding version, PC port is. But GC is probably the platform I will buy the game for.

Peanut 05-14-2003 09:40 AM

I mean overall sales Karpo. If the game is good it will sell.

Karpo_007 05-14-2003 09:42 AM

Yeah thats right. More platforms does mean more over all sales.

Brother Michaelangelo speaks the truth.

Not 100% true... Eternal Darkness is one of the best games I've ever played, it got awesome reviews from the press, fan sites were going nuts about it, and it flopped.

X-Box is geared about 80% towards adults. Most adults, other than the hardcore fans of TMNT who own X-Box pry woulden't be caught dead buying the game. I could see this selling pretty good for kids, but most kids want a PS2 or already have it.

It could acutally result in Konami loosing money if it dosen't sell enough units on the box. Games, even ports, are expensive to make.

You can do that on DreamCast using emulators

Mmhm.. Just as it's common sense and a known fact that what you stated was a very ignorant comment.
